Hi, I was bothered by a few things after upgrading nautilus:

- Lots of the gconf keys are missing schemas (ones that get set by the
  preference dialogs, and others that may exist but are undocumented)

- It shows 'Volumes' that are mounted in the most useless way, "26.7 GB
  Volume", it'd be nice to have a knob to switch this to the old
  behavior (mount point and then size would even be useful) - It seems
  to be conflating user mountable volumes with system volumes here. The
  documented keys for not displaying the volumes don't seem to work (and
  don't have schemas). This one I found particularly annoying because I
  haven't taken the time to memorize the sizes of the various drives
  that make up my filesystem.

- No way to show the Computer shortcut as the name of the computer. This
  one I found particularly confusing but not that annoying. It'd be nice
  to have a knob that switches this to the computer's hostname. There is
  a documented key (which doesn't seem to work) that switches it to a
  specific string, but not to the computer's actual name.


Thanks
